JOHNNY THUNDERS & THE HEARTBREAKERS - D.T.K. - Complete Live At The Speakeasy (2026 Reissue) JOHNNY THUNDERS & THE HEARTBREAKERS

A revised issue of the D.T.K – Live 1977 album, remixed and now featuring two full sets with 15 tracks. Classic Heartbreakers live album, with Johnny Thunders haranguing the crowd. 1982 notes by ZigZag journalist Kris Needs.

The Heartbreakers’ D.T.K (Down To Kill) is the incendiary live 1977 companion to L.A.M.F. (Like A Mother Fucker), which is hailed as one of the classic punk albums. Formed by New York Dolls members Johnny Thunders and Jerry Nolan in 1975, they influenced the UK punk scene, joining the Sex Pistols, The Damned and The Clash on the infamous Anarchy tour.

D.T.K was recorded by Track Records on the Maison Rouge mobile studio on 15th March 1977 at the notorious musicians’ nightclub and features Johnny infamously abusing the audience. It was a warm-up for the L.A.M.F. sessions starting the following week.

Originally released in 1982 as a 10-track album, it was remixed in 2005 and five more tracks were found on the 2" multi-track tapes. Now the album has the entire two sets played that night, 15 unexpurgated tracks in all. The sleeve has notes by journalist Kris Needs and contemporary photos.
